How to Freeze Pancake Muffins
Freeze on a cookie sheet and then place in an airtight container. These will last for up to 9 months in the freezer. The reason you would want to freeze them on a cookie sheet first is to prevent them from sticking together. From frozen, they reheat in less than a minute in the microwave when you are ready to eat them.
FAQ
Yes, they will bake perfectly! Each brand varies in ratio but the smallest option on the box should work great for this recipe. If you have a bit leftover, make more muffins 🙂
Yes, cook and dice the bacon and proceed with the recipe as is.
I haven't tested the ratio of those flours with this amount of liquid. If you have dietary restrictions my advice would be to use your favourite pancake recipe using these flours, add sausage to that recipe and bake in the muffin tin. Bake time should be similar but you will know when they are done with the good old toothpick test.
